💜 Partnership Spotlight: Celebrating the "Pouring Into You" Wine Benefit! 💜

A HUGE thank you to the incredible Jasmine and Andre Hicks for inviting the Epilepsy Foundation Texas to celebrate their amazing non-profit, Win All Else Fails, at the "Pouring Into You" Wine Benefit!

It was an honor for our COO, Rebecca Moreau, to speak at the event and share what this partnership means—it is a direct connection to our vision that "In Texas, Nobody Faces Epilepsy Alone." By supporting caregivers and connecting with the broader special needs community, Jasmine and Andre are helping us ensure every family has the resources and support they need.

The event, held at VinSanto Wine Bar, was a beautiful evening dedicated to "pouring into the caregivers who pour into others." Thank you for letting us be part of your mission!
